A summer birthday celebration is fun. There's almost always nice weather, a cool breeze and sun shinning down. Why not make that celebration a bit more special, by having a poolside party at Cleveland Metroparks Ledge Pool in Hinckley Reservation.

Pool Parties (10 person minimum) are available at Ledge Pool, an 80- by 100-foot heated, stainless steel pool. The pool is 2' deep at its shallow end and 5' at its deepest point. Celebrate in a reserved area with picnic tables for up to three hours during public hours. Party time slots are available from noon to 3 p.m. or 3:30 to 6:30 p.m.

Season pass holders can get a rental package for $55 and non-season pass holders can rent for $75. The package includes tent and tables plus pool admission up to 15 people (up to 25 additional people at $3 each).

Private Pool Parties, held 7 to 8:30 p.m. (after hours), are also available. Private rental costs are $170 ($120 for nonprofits) and can accommodate up to 100 people.

Food packages are available through the on-site Ledge Rock Caf� for all Pool Parties.
